GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BestNet
Communications Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: BESC), a provider of
proprietary global communication solutions, today announces the successful
completion of beta testing and launch of its new SMS (short messaging service)
service. BestNet's SMS Call can launch calls on its proprietary network using
text messaging on cellular networks worldwide. This latest addition to
BestNet's product line is made possible by BestNet's recently announced
GlobalPlex technology platform.
Robert A. Blanchard, President and CEO of BestNet Communications
Corporation stated, "This is significant development for BestNet in many ways.
To begin with, this is the first service offering in our portfolio that does
not require Internet connectivity to launch a call on our proprietary network,
enabling a substantial expansion in our current business model. Secondly, the
tremendous growth in the mobile market, especially growth in SMS, EMS and MMS
worldwide offers significant potential for the use of our application. We are
uniquely positioned to provide our clients the ability to make and receive low
cost phone calls anytime, anywhere and anyplace. We have designed our SMS
Call application for great ease of use and to leverage the quality and
tremendous cost saving of long distance calling via our network."
"Our SMS Call is a key example of the power of our new GlobalPlex
technology. GlobalPlex has allowed us to expand our calling infrastructure to
include SMS Call capabilities, which has effectively eliminated another
barrier to entry for potential new customers. We can now tap into a new
segment of users with mobile phones, with no need for a computer or Internet
connectivity. Businesses can more effectively deploy our services as their
traveling employees can easily access our everyday low rates while on the
road. This can be well over 70% saving from hotel, cellular, prepaid phone
cards and pay phone long distance rates. In the coming months we will roll
out other product enhancements, as well, commented Paul H. Jachim, Chief
Operating and Chief Financial Officer of BestNet.
SMS Call is available today on our website at http://www.Bestnetcall.com.
